The General nominates a General. It will be Carmelo Burgio, former general of the carabinieri, former paratrooper, the candidate of Futuro Nazionale in Milan. A man ready to “sweep” the Rogoredo forest and make Milan once again “the city of the Madonnina and not of the maranza.” And this is the first news that Roberto Vannacci announces at the Caffè de La Versiliana, interviewed by the director of Libero, Alessandro Sallusti. The second is that he will do the same in all the big cities that will go to the polls next spring: Bologna, Rome, Naples. There will be a candidate of Futuro Nazionale everywhere. And he will run alone, not allied with the center-right. So as to give Giorgia Meloni a taste of what it means to have a General shelling her from the right. A perfect appetizer for the negotiation ahead of the political elections which, in fact, Vannacci does not exclude at all. Here is the strategy: first he will try to make the center-right lose the Municipal elections, then, close to the Political elections, he will cash in. Want to win? Bow down.
THE CONDITIONS Pressed by the director of Libero, he replies: “For now I carry forward the demands of Futuro Nazionale. Agreements are made close to the political elections. When the time comes, we will discuss. At the moment no one has contacted me to make alliances or to set conditions, on the contrary, it is someone else on the other side who has erected walls. I am not the one who decides whether to participate or not, it is others who probably, being afraid of Futuro Nazionale, try to set conditions different from reality.” For the rest, the target is only one: the center-right government. Several times equated with the Draghi government and the left. Diplomatic crisis between Italy and Spain: the “government has not done enough.” Forget suspending Schengen. “We will have to lock down the borders, make a program of remigration, of expulsion.” Matteo Salvini, Sallusti points out, was prosecuted for closing the ports. “Politics,” he replies, “is a risky profession.” But if the magistrates say it cannot be done? Sallusti objects. “The magistrate applies a law. But the politician must change it.” Again: “One of the things this government could have done was to change Italian citizenship. But there are even some in the center-right who have asked for Ius Soli. Would the useful vote be for those who want to continue the Draghi agenda, that is, a left-wing agenda?” Then he cites a speech in the Chamber by the Forza Italia deputy Paolo Emilio Russo, who had defined immigration as “a resource.” “So we have Forza Italia using the same language as Laura Boldrini. Useful vote for whom?” A few minutes later comes Russo’s reply: “I am glad that Honorable Vannacci listened to my speech. Too bad he stopped at the first ten seconds or – and this would be worse, since he is running to be prime minister – he did not understand it. ‘Remigration’ is a theory that scientifically does not exist and, therefore, cannot be a political program. Different are the repatriations of irregulars, increased precisely by this majority.” Vannacci continues with the electoral law: he attacks the center-right snipers who “with ammunition provided by the PD shot against those who wanted to introduce preferences.” On the wealth tax, he takes on Antonio Tajani. “He said: ‘as long as I am here, there will be none,’ too bad that in Europe he voted to introduce new taxes.”

BETWEEN EUROPE AND RUSSIA
He is tender, instead, with Russia: “We are the only ones who do not take Russian gas, why?” Again: “And we insist on Russian sanctions that are counterproductive for Italy.” The family. “This is the government that came up saying ‘I am a mother, I am Christian.’ They voted for surrogacy as an international crime, but their local administrators sponsor the Gay Pride.” Security. “It is the same agenda as Draghi and the left.” Then he contests the crime of femicide: at this rate, he says, we will move on to the crime of “leftophobia” for which “offending a leftist will be more serious than offending a right-winger.” He attacks Meloni on Trump (“Who went to negotiate with him on tariffs?”). Then on Europe: “I remember Meloni shouting ‘the good times are over,’ well, they are not over.” Sallusti points out that these sound like the words of an opposition leader. Then he takes on Conte: the citizenship income, the superbonus. And he tries to imitate Berlusconi: “We would like Italy to become a country where everyone is rich, everyone is an owner.” But the General’s campaign has just begun: from the cities.
